Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the single storey extension erected to the front of the building is in breach of planning control

What decided it

The structure meets the three criteria for constituting a building (size, permanence, and physical attachment) and therefore comprises development requiring planning permission, which has not been obtained.
